LinuxToons - Linux in main-stream cartoons

I collected a few Linux-themed comics back in 1999 and a few years
thereabout. Looking back, I guess then was when the
Linux phenomenon ("open sores") got the attention of
the general public.

Then, it all cooled down, and Linux just became a commodity,
I guess. Thus page still lingers around, and I've posted a
few Linux/Unix oddities here. Some I have found myself, some
have been sent me from others. Feel free to
tip me about
anything you feel fits on this page.

Doonesbury, 1999-04-09.
Mike's daughter Alex runs a webcam and does a
little commercial. "Red Cap" is a pretty obvious twist on
Red Hat.

Foxtrot, 1999-08-16.
Jason Fox and his friend Marcus seem to have a good grip on Linux.

Robotman, 1999-09-10. Monty has cleaned up Robotman's disks.
Luckily, Robotman later seemed to recover his original OS and stop
drooling.

According to Dr. Fun
(a.k.a. Dave Farley), Windows+Linux is a rather kinky combination...

Doonesbury, 1999-12-14.
Not really Linux, but I felt it fitted in here. The story goes on with
Mike rejecting Murgatroy's acquisition offer, then being forced out of
business when Microsoft releases a competing product for free.
(«free» as in beer...)

Nemi,
